    iwl4965: reset firmware after rfkill off

broke rfkill notification to user-space . I missed that bug, because
I compiled without CONFIG_RFKILL, sorry about that.

<title>ath9k_htc: Restore skb headroom when returning skb to mac80211</title>

commit d2e9fc141e2aa21f4b35ee27072d84e9aa6e2ba0 upstream.

ath9k_htc adds padding between the 802.11 header and the payload during
TX by moving the header. When handing the frame back to mac80211 for TX
status handling the header is not moved back into its original position.
This can result in a too small skb headroom when entering ath9k_htc
again (due to a soft retransmission for example) causing an
skb_under_panic oops.

Fix this by moving the 802.11 header back into its original position
before returning the frame to mac80211 as other drivers like rt2x00
or ath5k do.

Patch fixes zd1201 not to use stack as URB transfer_buffer. URB buffers need
to be DMA-able, which stack is not.

Patch is only compile tested.

commit 3c322a56b01695df15c70bfdc2d02e0ccd80654e upstream.

Fix possibly wrong memcpy() bytes length since some CAN records received from
PCAN-USB could define a DLC field in range [9..15].
In that case, the real DLC value MUST be used to move forward the record pointer
but, only 8 bytes max. MUST be copied into the data field of the struct
can_frame object of the skb given to the network core.

commit 788f7a56fce1bcb2067b62b851a086fca48a0056 upstream.

Using rfkill switch can make firmware unstable, what cause various
Microcode errors and kernel warnings. Reseting firmware just after
rfkill off (radio on) helped with that.

Self explanitory dma_mapping_error addition to the 8139 driver, based on this:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=947250

It showed several backtraces arising for dma_map_* usage without checking the
return code on the mapping.  Add the check and abort the rx/tx operation if its
failed.  Untested as I have no hardware and the reporter has wandered off, but
seems pretty straightforward.

[ Upstream commit 20f0170377264e8449b6987041f0bcc4d746d3ed ]

usbnet doesn't support yet SG, so drivers should not advertise SG or TSO
capabilities, as they allow TCP stack to build large TSO packets that
need to be linearized and might use order-5 pages.

This adds an extra copy overhead and possible allocation failures.

Current code ignore skb_linearize() return code so crashes are even
possible.

Best is to not pretend SG/TSO is supported, and add this again when/if
usbnet really supports SG for devices who could get a performance gain.
